The Derani alphabet (Toaq:    (áofabeta mı Deranı)) is the official native writing system of Toaq, first introduced in Toaq Delta. It is the successor of Hoelai.

Symbols

Letters

Below is a list of Derani letters. Vowels share letters with consonants.

Derani Latin Name IPA

Ꝡ  (ꝡeꝡa) /w~j/
Q  (aq'aq) /ŋ/
G, O  (guguı) /ɡ/, /o/
K  (kıkue) /kʰ/
[note 1] '  (o'aomo) /ʔ/
H  (hehaq) /h/
  1. ↑ O'aomo is only used in order to clear up ambiguities. Other than that, it is not used. For example, in  (aq'aq), is not used because (q) cannot be a vowel, meaning there are no ambiguities.

When reading, one should assume that the first letter is a consonant. If the second letter is consonant-only, the first letter should be a vowel.

Prefixes are separated from the main word by a after the last prefix.

Tones

The first tone falling tone is not marked.

Tone Derani Latin
1 (falling) ◌ ◌
2 (rising) ◌ ◌́
3 (low glottal) ◌ ◌̈
4 (rising-falling) ◌ ◌̂

Punctuation

Derani Usage
declarative full stop
non-declarative, non-interogative full stop
question mark
subordination mark, marks increase or decrease in clausal nesting
quotation mark
and marks variables to which can be referred with anaphoric pronouns (only the head of a serial gets marked)
for determiners with null complements (e.g. saying   (sá) instead of   (sá raı))

Unicode encoding

To type Derani characters, we use the block F16B0–F16DF of the Unicode Private Use Area. Check out the toaq/fonts repository on GitHub for fonts that can display these characters. See here for typing Derani.

E 󱚾 DERANI LETTER JUJUO 󱛎 DERANI COMBINING DIPHTHONG MARK
F 󱚿 DERANI LETTER CHICHAO

Use of the combining characters follows Unicode convention, with tone marks appearing immediately after the letter they attach to, and the diphthong mark appearing between the two letters it attaches to.

The encoding has separate characters for the start and end of a cartouche. This is because cartouches can span across more than one word, so fonts need both ends delineated to know which letters they extend over.

Displaying Derani on Discord

Below are instructions for displaying the Derani script on Discord:

  • (#2) Install Better Discord, OpenAsar, or another equivalent, which will add several customization options to the interface of Discord;
  • (#3) Open Discord, then open the custom CSS dialog (in the case of Better Discord, go to ⚙ ⊳ Custom CSS), and there copy-paste the following:
:root {
  --font-primary: "gg sans", "Noto Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, Derani, sans-serif;
}

[id^="message-content-"] {
   line-height: normal;
}

Then, click “Save”, then “Update” (or alternatively, “Live Update”).

  • (#4) Kill Discord, then restart it (doing Ctrl+R is apparently not enough; merely closing the application may not necessarily be sufficient).
